We investigate prestellar core formation and accretion based on three-dimensional hydrodynamic simulations. Our simulations represent local $sim 1$pc regions within giant molecular clouds where a supersonic turbulent flow converges, triggering star formation in the post-shock layer. We include turbulence and self-gravity, applying sink particle techniques, and explore a range of inflow Mach number ${cal M}=2-16$. Two sets of cores are identified and compared: $t_1$-cores are identified of a time snapshot in each simulation, representing dense structures in a single cloud map; $t_mathrm{coll}$-cores are identified at their individual time of collapse, representing the initial mass reservoir for accretion. We find that cores and filaments form and evolve at the same time. At the stage of core collapse, there is a well-defined, converged characteristic mass for isothermal fragmentation that is comparable to the critical Bonner-Ebert mass at the post-shock pressure. The core mass functions (CMFs) of $t_mathrm{coll}$-cores show a deficit of high-mass cores ($gtrsim 7M_odot$) compared to the observed stellar initial mass function (IMF). However, the CMFs of $t_1$-cores are similar to the observed CMFs and include many low-mass cores that are gravitationally stable. The difference between $t_1$-cores and $t_mathrm{coll}$-cores suggests that the full sample from observed CMFs may not evolve into protostars. Individual sink particles accrete at a roughly constant rate throughout the simulations, gaining one $t_mathrm{coll}$-core mass per free-fall time even after the initial mass reservoir is accreted. High-mass sinks gain proportionally more mass at late times than low-mass sinks. There are outbursts in accretion rates, resulting from clumpy density structures falling into the sinks.
Understanding the formation of wide binary systems of very low mass stars (M $le$ 0.1 Msun) is challenging. The most obvious route is via widely separated low-mass collapsing fragments produced through turbulent fragmentation of a molecular core. How
While it is generally accepted that the magnetic field and its non-ideal effects play important roles during the stellar formation, simple models of pure hydrodynamics and angular momentum conservation are still widely employed in the studies of disk
Fallback in core-collapse supernovae (CCSNe) plays an important role in determining the properties of the central compact remnants, which might produce a black hole (BH) hyperaccretion system in the centre of a massive CCSN. When the accretion rate i
We characterize the infall rate onto protostellar systems forming in self-gravitating radiation-hydrodynamic simulations. Using two dimensionless parameters to determine disks susceptability to gravitational fragmentation, we infer limits on protoste
We present Submillimeter Array (SMA) observations at 345 GHz towards the intermediate/high-mass cluster-forming region NGC 6334 V. From the dust emission we spatially resolve three dense condensations, the brightest one presenting the typical chemist
